A slight nuance: Yes, I absolutely agree that Arcan is winning on a11y features overall; I'll go stronger and say that it doesn't just exceed Wayland, I think it's better than X was. What I meant specifically is that I want to see if it's backwards compatible with at least some of the tools I use on X, because it looks like (especially from this post) Arcan might be able to hand existing tools an X-compatible interface (doing actual access control and everything behind the scenes but that's all invisible to the tools using this interface) and let me keep using what I already have without having to (re)write anything new. As an example: On X, I can use `xdotool type --window $WINDOW_ID "sometext"` to type into a window even if it's not active. On Wayland, your best hope is that you happen to be using a compositor that's implemented some nonstandard API to do that. My hope is that Arcan implements enough of X that you can make it work, albeit probably with some explicit permission-granting.

Of course, Arcan looks good enough, and actually exposes enough API surface, that if it's not compatible with my existing tools then yes I probably will write whatever I need over its native APIs and just run with that. But it'd be nice if I didn't even need to do that:)
Great suggestions.

I'm quite happy with Obsidian on Linux, especially due to great plugin ecosystem.

Granted that it would have been great if the clients were open-source; but Obsidian is one of those non-FOSS apps which are so consumer oriented that they get an exception from me.

I sync the files from Obsidian using syncthing to Android & use Markor for editing. But this wouldn't be possible on iOS.
There is source code. Investigate it, don't be a lazy bum.
I'm shocked, shocked, to discover that in the land of the "free market" the market optimizes for corporate profit not low prices.

This is not news. In the US people vote for politicians who promise low regulation, business friendly and "economy" priorities. Those politicians run with corporate money and favor corporations.

Other places (like the EU) have people who vote differently and have more appetite for reigning in the "free market" while serving consumers as the priority.

It's not impossible for people to change, just unlikely. We tend to assume the pond we live in has the best water.
I would think, or hope, that this guideline is geared towards protecting a years-long effort such as writing a performant, feature-rich terminal emulator, rather than a comment which takes 5 minutes max to draft.

Not clicking on a documentation link on a technical project is the definition of a shallow dismissal in my opinion.
That’s only true for online payments (and even then only if 3DS is not used).

Are people building GEO tools? (SEO for AI search)
something that's been kind of on my mind, Exa Labs + Perplexity have been the biggest AI native search engines that I've seen and used, but how do they figure out what sources to use to show the user?

found out this was called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and there's agencies that help you get your content to the top of AI search engines.

But how does this stuff even work? And what is the market for saas tools in GEO?

Interested to see how this market turns out but i'd love to know if anyone has seen some cool tools that people are building in that space.

It's uncommon for upstream to provide .deb packages. That's not really how it's supposed to work. The Debian community creates Debian packages. Upstream's job is only to avoid making the Debian community's job more difficult than necessary. Unfortunately due to the decisions made by various popular Linux projects (mainly an obscene obsession with dynamic linking), it's not really feasible for upstreams to provide GUI applications on Linux. I hope someday this can change, but realistically there's not enough effort being put towards this goal.

Seems pretty clear they would.
My SO and me are both introverts, and we've talked a fair bit about it. We both enjoy social events every now and then, but we do need to recharge afterwards.

The common theme for us seems to be that we expend a lot of energy when talking with others. We analyze what they say, in order to come up with thought-through responses or follow-up questions. We don't do "chit chat" as such.

Before such events I dread them, because I know it will feel exhausting. Yet when I'm at them I have a good time. Afterwards however it feels almost exactly like I've been programming hard for a whole day, my brain is spent.

I, unlike my SO, also has some social anxiety. I'm very likely somewhere on the spectrum, as I often feel difficulty getting social interactions right. So I spend some extra energy thinking about what the right response is to this or that, or how to interpret body language. Especially if it's a new setting or a lot of new people this can cause a lot of extra mental work.

This part however has gotten better with the years, mostly because I've stopped caring so much what others think and just let myself be myself more.
None of those things required social engagement with large numbers of people on an ongoing basis. Occasional contact with the broader world for business and religion is not the same thing as the intense, frequent, and large-scale social expectations that are a burden for most introverts.

There's a huge difference between going to church on occasion (or even weekly, which was not always the norm) and living in a city with a population density measured in the thousands per square mile.
Isn't that an argument that macOS/Windows aren't doing so well? On Debian, I can run `apt upgrade` and patch every single program. On Windows, I have to have a bunch of updater background processes and that still doesn't cover everything.

I think another reason why this was common for mid-century designers, was at that time being a “designer” was much less specialised and general in terms of the type of output. A lot of famous designers did graphic design, typography, illustration, architecture, furniture, clothing, films, jewellery etc. For example, the creative powerhouse Ray and Charles Eames, or most members of the Bauhaus did so much stuff - now days we’d label it “multi-disciplinary”, but back then it was just being a designer.

In that environment it makes sense a lot of creative people would think, well I’ve made so many other types of things, why not also kids books.

I appreciate the hyper-specialisation of design today, as it acknowledges that outputs require very specific skills, but I think it can also lead to an industry that limits people, boxing them into specific career paths.
I created a tarpit idea, should I just give up already?
I recently stumbled upon the concept of 'tarpit ideas' from this video https://www.ycombinator.com/library/Ij-tarpit-ideas-what-are-tarpit-ideas-how-to-avoid-them the example they give is similar what I built lol. I created an 'event near you' website (terrawav.com) with the goal of listing almost every event imaginable. While I believe this is unique, I'm now questioning its necessity. Finding events typically involves visiting a few different sites, which doesn't seem overly burdensome.

Are there any examples of seemingly 'tarpit' ideas that actually succeeded? I'm curious if my project might still have potential, or if it's likely to become a time-consuming endeavor with limited practical value.

I'm honestly not sure what a OS native tab is supposed to be, on Linux. And I do not see why "emulated tabs" of WezTerm couldn't just do the actions that you describe. The Firefox tabs do after all, and they do not look like they are built according to some (GTK?) tab standard (GTK.Notebook?). I'm pretty sure that X11 does not have native tabs, while some window manager do. Is there a linux standard I'm just not aware of that you are referencing here?

Maybe it does not matter, the difference in functionality should count. Just highlighting that this messaging might not be understandable for linux users. I guess you are talking about some macOS thingie that's irrelevant to us.
so like maybe we can still read and comment thanks to the glorious archive folks...

Here's the truth about the person you refer to (Jordan Neely), straight from his Wikipedia article:

> Neely had an extensive criminal record, including 42 arrests on charges including petty larceny, jumping subway turnstiles, theft, and three unprovoked assaults on women in the subway between 2019 and 2021

> Another witness heard Neely say, "Someone is going to die today."[3] Penny said that Neely repeatedly threatened to kill other passengers.[10] Vázquez said that Neely was frightening but had not assaulted anyone.[6] Other witnesses said that Neely made "half-lunge movements" at other passengers and was within "half a foot of people", and recalled fearing for their lives.[3][11] A mother with a child testified that Neely charged at passengers, and she shielded herself and her child behind a stroller, believing she might die.[12]

He most definitely was a threat to the entire Subway car. The system failed him by not putting him in a mental asylum a long time ago. The Subway system is now this de facto mental asylum, but violent threats are not tolerable.

Of course it's all BS, but whatever, the last thing we need is another search engine from bigtech, telling us what we can read, instead of giving real search results.

On the other hand, someone should really create a search engine that does the same what Google did 10 years ago (and maybe make it actually better than it used to be). I wouldn't even mind if Apple made that (which would never happen), although I'm looking forward the day when a small player kicks Google's butt so hard, that they are forced to sell themselves for cents on the dollar.

> Most libraries implement timezone aware dates as an offset from UTC internally.

For what it's worth, the libraries that are generally considered "good" (e.g. java.time, Nodatime, Temporal) all offer a "zoned datetime" type which stores an IANA identifier (and maybe an offset, but it's only meant for disambiguation w.r.t. transitions). Postgres already ships tzinfo and works with those identifiers, it just expects you to manage them more manually (e.g. in a separate column or composite type). Also let's not pretend that "timestamp with time zone" isn't a huge misnomer that causes confusion when it refers to a simple instant.

I suspect you might be part of the contingent that considers such a combined type a fundamentally bad idea, however: https://errorprone.info/docs/time#zoned_datetime
1) the card is expensive in an upfront way that is difficult for poorer people to justify for playing money games

2) getting the value of the card is contingent on spending more money. A poor person with fewer expenses won’t get nearly as much benefit

3) let’s not ignore the elephant in the room which is credit cards trying everything to get you to make minimum payments to prey on the financially illiterate, which again, are heavily concentrated in the poor
Thanks for the question!

First off, the ML surrogate is many orders of magnitude faster than direct kMC simulation. Each global optimization involved up to 500 sequential predictions of emission intensity with different nanoparticle structures (and gradients - I'll come back to those). For the largest particles that we optimized, running kMC on only the final optimized structure (for validation) took three months! So running 500 sequential kMC simulations would take approximately 125 years - not ideal. In contrast, all 81 global optimizations took two days with our trained hetero-GNN.

Back to the gradients - running the kMC simulations involves generating four different randomly doped 3D nanoparticle structures according to the shell thicknesses and dopant concentrations for the structure of interest, and then running four kMC trajectories with different random seeds for each structure. The final predicted value for emission (based on the number of emitted photons within the energy range of interest) is averaged over all sixteen trajectories. kMC is fundamentally stochastic, and not differentiable. But even if you could make it so with the adjoint-variable method (which I am admittedly not super familiar with), or maybe by writing your kMC code in a language with foundational auto-diff capabilities, once you move from a description of layer thicknesses and dopant concentrations to an ensemble of 3D structures/trajectories, I still don't think that the gradient of emission with respect to layer thicknesses and dopant concentrations would be accessible.

Thoughts? Thanks!
Yes it is better than NOT sharing!

What would be more interesting is to require all private companies who are doing US government contracts, especially the ones who are handling classified projects to do the same as these US agencies!!!

Show HN: I made an app that generates Product Hunt badge regardless of your rank
My products this year didn't reach the top spots on Product Hunt...

...but I still wanted a badge on my website!

So I did, added some code and voila, the "17th product of the day" badge is on the website

Simple enough. It probably should've ended there

But then I thought. "Maybe, someone else might also want a badge? Wouldn't it be cool to make a web app for this..."

And so, badgemy.app is born!

It's free of course. Maybe it'll save you 10-30 mins!

Add a badge to your website and end the year on a high

ps: I don't know how useful this really is but I guess I just wanted to build a website. Would love your feedback!

> idea of villages of 30 people where you don't talk to anyone is just a fantasy

I didn't say that—I said you'd regularly interact with only ~30 people (give or take). You'd probably be on good terms with a few dozen more, and it's been demonstrated that we really lose the ability to have relationships entirely by about 100-300.

The average city today has about 8x that number of people per square mile. That's entirely unlike anything that evolution equipped us for, which is why I object to OP's assertion that we all descend from extremely social people. By modern standards we absolutely do not.

Both Terra and Extempore [1] implement the same basic idea, which is provide a way to generate performant machine code on the fly but keeping a language surface that feels like you are working with a dynamic language (Lua or Scheme correspondingly). I think Scopes [2] could be mentioned here too. The concept is really cool and different from JIT compiling in that the developer is given the tools to generate machine code, as opposed to some "magic" JIT compiling happening opaquely behind the scenes.

That being said, I don't think either of these languages is practical for real world projects for several reasons: lack of (or low quality) documentation, bus factor (lack of developers), tiny communities, lack of tools, lack of libraries, etc etc etc.

The difference between introversion and shyness is the difference between exhaustion and fear. They can influence each other (being afraid all the time is exhausting, for example), but they are ultimately separate emotions that need not coexist or have any relationship to each other.
That seems... Pretty normal?

I mean, it falls within what the IRS has been legally tasked to do and know, the information request (demand?) has gone though the courts, and I don't see how "with a computer" makes it different than stuff that's been going on for a long time.
The rationale of the banks is clear. The problem is that these are perverse incentives.

The costs hit all customers, not just the ones who use credit cards. And the benefits accrue largely to the cardholders of premium cards, which are wealthy people. It’s a tax on being poor to subsidize the wealthy and the middlemen.

Cards should be forced into being a true commodity with perfect competition. The incentive rewards games are harmful to society.
